Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0867870A1] An optical disk apparatus comprising an optical disk (10) on which pits (1, 31) corresponding to data bits are arranged in a track tangential direction, a motor drive unit (11, 12) for rotating the optical disk, and a reproducing unit (13) for reproducing the pits, wherein the length PL of each of the pits is set at such a value as to satisfy a condition of following equation <MATH> where the scanning linear velocity at which the disk is rotated by the motor drive unit when the reproducing unit reproduces the pits recorded in a radius r1 of the disk is set to Srl Äm/sÜ, a preset channel bit rate in the radius r1 of the optical disk is set to fT Äb/sÜ, the pits correspond to data recorded in correspondence to the n-channel bit length, and the pit length in the track tangential direction is set to PL ÄmÜ. <IMAGE>
